Adams,Michael vs. Lalic,Susan K - ESTCC-50 2025 1-0
In the game between Michael Adams playing with white pieces versus Susan K Lalic playing with black pieces in the ESTCC-50 2025 event on 2025.04.06, Black's move Bd5 is a notable one. This pawn sacrifice allows for a more active bishop and develops a piece for potential active play, but at the cost of losing material immediately. The move follows capture, indicating that it likely comes after a previous attack or threat has been neutralized. By advancing on the long diagonal, Black misses an opportunity to better escape from any impending attack. This pawn sacrifice is also counterintuitive in nature, as it loses material without offering a significant strategic advantage.
